Quote of the Day

As you may remember from
previous posts, I have started working with a great little company called Itty Bitty Book Company. They produce the cutest little books, filled with
inspirational quotes for any situation. In my work with them, I’ve decided that
every other week I will share a quote with you that I feel applies to my life
at that particular time. I love quotes and often turn to them when I need some motivation
and inspiration, so I hope that by doing this I can help to inspire some of you
too.

“Sometimes it’s OK if the only thing
you did today was breathe”

I picked this quote very
quickly this week. I knew I wanted to choose one from the ‘Strength’ book,
because the last couple of weeks have been incredibly difficult and I’ve needed
any strength I can possibly find. It just feels like everything is coming
crashing down around me right now and I’m feeling incredibly vulnerable. Doing
anything is taking me all the energy and strength that I have, so I particularly
like this quote as it makes you realise that there are some days where simply breathing
and staying alive is enough. I’m very self-critical and always put pressure on
myself to achieve highly, so this quote is something I find very difficult to
put into practise. But it’s something I definitely need to work on. I need to
realise that I don’t have to be perfect every day. I don’t even have to be
particularly great. I just need to give whatever I can and stay alive, and no
one can ask anything else of me. So, if you’re struggling to get through each
day right now, I’d really like you to take heed of this quote and congratulate
yourself for making it through today.
